How Can It Hurt

(music: marillion lyrics: steve hogarth)



Maybe you're just too upset inside to give it to me straight

Maybe you've become too angry and too close to crying to say anything i can understand

Or maybe you're just coming in over my head

Maybe you're just too upset inside too upset inside



How can it hurt if i don't understand

How can it hurt if i don't understand

How can it hurt if i don't understand

How can it hurt if i don't understand



You're never gonna square with me i know so what is there to say?

There's a million words that we could share tonight

Why do you walk away?

And i could write you off and it's over with like a damaged car i can't afford to fix

But everything inside me wants to heal your pain

You won't explain

You won't explain



How can it hurt if i don't understand

How can it hurt if i don't understand

How can it hurt if i don't understand

How can it hurt if i don't understand



How can it hurt, how can it hurt

Well i don't understand

Well i don't understand

Tell me how can it hurt

Well i don't understand

Tell me how can it hurt

Well i don't understand
